Description

Built in 1965 this one-owner home was custom built by the owners. Oversized hallways, stunningly large windows, and a timeless layout. Natural light fills this home and overlooks a large backyard and lined with Evergreen trees. With three rooms on the main floor and an oversized living room with a fireplace. Downstairs is a separate suite of it's own with a second kitchen, living room, and two bedroom-like spaces complete with a custom limestone-laid fireplace with real fossils petrified in stone's surface. The Chuckanut Village neighborhood rarely has turnover and is the perfect location. It is tucked away from city life but near Fairhaven for a quick trip and down the road is public beach access. A timeless keeper of a home.
